Preparation for Russian university admission


For applicants who wish to successfully enroll in a Russian university in 2023, we have compiled a list of places where you can begin studying at preparatory departments on February 1, 2023.

The preparatory course is a pre—university training program for foreign students who want to prepare for admission to Russian universities.
The program consists of a Russian language course as well as specialized subjects related to your future specialty. There are five types of preparatory faculty:
- technical
- natural sciences
- medicine 
- humanitarian
- economic sciences

The main subject in these courses is the Russian language; the list of other majors depends on the profile of the preparatory course.
